It’s that time again Le Beaujolais est Arrivé! Beaujolais Nouveau day this year is Thursday 21st November.
Once again we have partnered with Cecile and Alain Dardenelli from Domaine Bel Avenir in La Chapelle de Guinchay, 3 kilometrs east of Chenas.
Their grapes are harvested from vines planted on an array of different terroirs: siliceous clay (St Amour), granite (Chenas) and limestone. The couple own vineyards in the Beaujolais-Villages plain as well as in the Crus of Juliénas, Chénas, St Amour and Fleurie.
We are always excited to see what this years harvest will bring. The 2024 growing season started with rain and cool temperatures with intense sunshine during summer. Fingers crossed we have all the elements for a good year.
You can expect bubble-gum, raspberries, cherries and fresh, vibrant, and juicy fun.
